"Rico Barr and the Jump 'n' Jive Review"
Rico Barr and the Jump 'n' Jive Review is one of New England's Premier Dance Bands. The Band was Nominated as "Swing Band of The Year" by the National Swing Awards.

LINDY BOOT CAMP this week
by Free Dance Studio. Details
6-8pm

BEGINNER LESSONS (8-9pm):
- Beginner (Intro Swing)

Dear Swing City Patrons,

Rico Barr's "Jump 'n' Jive Review" this Saturday!

This Saturday we've got Rico Barr's band in town who are a sure bet to have you Jump'n and Jive'n! A favorite in the New England Swing Dance circuit, they will keep you dancing all night long on. Join us!

Don't forget, FDS is teaching a free Lindy Bootcamp from 6-8pm as well. See more details here.

Also, please bring friends to Swing City! It's not only great fun for all to meet new people, but vital to not just Swing City, but the whole swing dance scene. The "word of mouth" approach from our regular and occasional dancers is by far the most effective.

Cover this week is $16 at the door ($4 off with current/valid student ID)

And as usual, Mike's "famous" free, fresh, hot popcorn.

Hope to see you there!
